Future of real estate in USA

[NiceSoft12]

This is very important. USA real estate especially urban and semi suburban is going down big time seems like. But the Chinese don't care, as they are still buying up land like it is gold. Maybe they will buy bitcoins sooner or later.

But seriously is real estate still a good investment for the next 5-10 years.

I think investment in real estate is always a good idea but it should be for long term. We can not expect profit from a short time investment in real estate. I believe that soon there will be a boom in real estate in United States Of America.

Real estate are going to increase over the time generally.
1. The currency supply for all the world are always increasing
2. The human population is unlikely to decreased over time; means more house for ppl
3. The USA is still one of the country with many immigrant
4. Possible less suitable land for ppl to stay- Chg environment(pollution) cause serious effect to some place
5.

I disagree with this. If anything, urban real estate is going up in value in larger cities. The younger generations are more keen to live within their entertainment and shopping districts, with walking distance proximity. The suburbs are going to fade big time as people flock to the city BUT the suburbs will remain the most affordable of options so I'm sure they'll meet the needs of people that want to buy homes on lower budgets.

China's investment in US properties is a sign of a strong real estate market but it's a stronger sign that the Chinese are worried to keep their money within China's borders. They're worried about currency, inflation, and government risk.

Buying real estate is good right now, especially with mortgage rates as low as they can be.

I think the elite recognizes that the US is becoming a rent society like Europe.  Various economic factors are making it more likely for people to rent and less likely to own their homes.  For this reason, a huge portion of income is increasingly being dumped into liabilities (rent) which historically has been a great American asset.  As fiat currencies inflate against hard assets like real estate, I don't think it's a bad idea to own some land.  We have deflation and a possible looming economic slowdown.

Real estate and gold are the best investments for the long term perspective. In short term prices may be more volatile but if you think about 10 years then those are the best investment products give you a solid returns in any country. Since population is growing later people need a land for construction for sure.

I heard that in Detroit, Michigan you can buy pretty much everything for a song. On a serious note, you still can earn pretty great money if you invest in real estate, but don't expect it to be fast. Yet it so far one of the best ways of allocating your capital... Invest while you can.

Location, location, location. You cannot talk of real estate in the USA as a single market. there's absolutely nothing in common between the market in Pacific Palisades and the market in rural Iowa.

No one can truly own real estate, they are always subject to tax and eminent domain. Only the utility/rent it brings make some sense

From this perspective, bitcoin is the only true asset that you can 100% own for generations to come

It depends...

Personally, I believe in the strength of real estate as a way to build wealth for some, security for others, and yet total disaster for others.

Within my lifetime I expect to see at least 2 more bubbles...booms and busts in my country (U.S.A.)
with everything in between.

1 simplified scenario would be: buying a house you can afford, with an excellent interest rate and paying it off in 15 years.
Don't ever refinance it.

Well you may be true about the eminent domain part but the value of property and buildings on property does increase so it's more than just a utility or rent value. There's equity too. And I don't even think bitcoin is the only true asset you can own because guess what happens when the electricity goes out - your bitcoin goes bye bye, disappears with the light from the light bulb.

It takes a lot of trust for this system, although no more than it takes for the fiat system!
